Tim Green
Football Hero
Summary
Ty Lewis is elated when the school coach recruits him for the football team. Unfortunately, Ty's Uncle Gus - his guardian since the death of Ty's parents - insists the boy has no time for sports. He has to earn his keep by scrubbing toilets for Gus's cleaning service.
Ty's only relief comes in his too-rare visits with his brother Thane, a college football star headed for the NFL. But when one of Gus's clients, who happens to be the local mob boss, finds out how famous Thane is, things spiral out of control. As the tension mounts, Ty finds himself trapped in a dangerous web where the stakes are high and one false move could destroy his brother's career.
Once again former NFL star Tim Green uses his insider's knowledge of football to craft a spellbinding sports novel - made even more compelling here by his skillful work as the story's narrator.
